Become a winner in life after binding the childbearing system
Chapter 380 Daily Wasteland Collection (8)
"It's not bad if you think about it. Didn't you say you were the deputy captain of the patrol team?"
He has a good career and a bright future, and lives in Area B. He is definitely tall, rich, handsome, and the best candidate for son-in-law.
Song Ling didn’t know Cheng Qi’s name yet, and she hadn’t even met him formally, but she was satisfied with his appearance. To be honest, she was a little anxious, but this kind of thing required efficiency.
Shen Yao scratched her head, "Mom, you're going too far, we don't even know each other."
People paid for the loquats she bought, but she can't feel good about herself just because of that. Shen Yao has been living here wholeheartedly and has no time to think about personal feelings.
Song Ling clicked her tongue twice, thinking that her daughter was good in every way except that she was too serious.
For some things, you have to take the initiative to have a chance. Not everyone on the patrol team can live in Area B.
Deciding to secretly ask someone to help get a feel for the situation, Song Ling continued to deal with the loquats in her hands.
The two of them worked hard all day and finally processed all the loquats they had picked. Instead of taking a rest, they simply changed places to continue collecting.
This is the daily life in the mutated world, repeating the gathering life day after day, and trying every possible way to survive.
…………
When Shen Jiancheng and Shen Yu came back from their mission, Shen Yao and Song Ling had already filled the empty storage room half full. As the price of fruit remained high, Song Ling bought an air conditioner as she wished and placed it in the main room.
"We brought back a lot of meat this time, so why don't we buy a refrigerator?"
The refrigerator is very useful. Song Ling was reluctant to use it before, but there are so many things at home, and the waste of meat is more worrying than the electricity bill.
Song Ling waved her hand and said, "Buy"
Feeling very happy, Song Ling let Shen Jiancheng and Shen Yu take a rest, and took Shen Yao out to the exchange center.
"Sister Cheng Qi is at the exchange center, right? We can take advantage of this opportunity to pick out a new one."
Electric appliances like air conditioners and refrigerators had to be purchased at exchange centers. Moreover, electricity was expensive during this period, so few people could afford it.
If Song Ling hadn't earned points from selling fruits recently, she would not have been willing to spend the money.
"It's at the exchange center, Mom. We can still meet him if we go there now."
Cheng Qi’s sister-in-law is Zhao Xue, a kind and cheerful person.
Because of the special relationship between Shen Yao and Cheng Qi, Zhao Xue was very friendly to Shen Yao, which resulted in Song Ling always being able to get good bargains every time she came to the exchange center.
"Ask Cheng Qi to come over tonight. Your father and brother finally came back, so it's a good opportunity for the whole family to meet."
Song Ling is very satisfied with Cheng Qi as her son-in-law. Although the relationship between Cheng Qi and Shen Yao progressed a little quickly, this is the normal speed in the mutated world. There is not much time for romance. Survival is still the guillotine hanging over everyone's head.
Shen Yao nodded when she heard that, "Okay, Cheng Qi won't be out on business today," and she can come directly after get off work in the evening, saving the trouble of asking for leave.
The two quickly arrived at the exchange center, and after entering there was a row of windows.
Zhao Xue was sitting closest to the inner room, and she was busy knitting a sweater.
"Sister Zhao Xue"
Shen Yao greeted her with a smile, and Zhao Xue was so surprised that she stood up and pulled the person in.
"Aunt Song, Yaoyao, please come and sit down," Zhao Xue brought tea and pastries, and put them on the table. "We have some good nutritional supplements today. One is worth 7 points and gives you a good feeling of fullness. Do you want to buy some?"
Shen Yao nodded and said, "Buy it. My dad and his family just came back. I'll prepare some for them so they don't have to worry when they go out."
Zhao Xue agreed, "That's right. My mother-in-law also bought a lot. My family and his eldest brother will be going out soon, so it's better to be prepared."
Although nutritional supplements have been criticized for not tasting good and the ingredients inside are not good, it cannot be denied that they are the most convenient to take when you are out.
One bottle of nutrient can last a day, and the raw materials of the nutrient sold today are better and not as destructive to the bodies of those who have genetically awakened.
Zhao Xue’s husband is a gene awakener, or in other words, all the men in the Cheng family, except for the two children who have not grown up, have different degrees of gene awakening.
Otherwise, Cheng's mother wouldn't always worry about Cheng Qi getting into trouble. It was all caused by Cheng Qi's biological father and elder brother. The lessons from the past are still fresh in their minds.
The three chatted for a while, and Zhao Xue asked them why they came here. It couldn't be just to buy nutritional supplements, and it wasn't some Pokémon.
"Sister Zhao Xue, we want to buy a refrigerator. It's hot, and the things at home can't be kept for too long."
After Shen Yao finished speaking, Zhao Xue grabbed her wrist and said, "It's not difficult. Come with me to the warehouse. There are still a few new refrigerators left that have not been sold. You can take a good look."
Song Ling felt a little embarrassed when she heard this, "Will this be too much trouble for you?"
Zhao Xue said, "We are one family and we don't have to talk about our differences. Why should we make trouble?"
No matter what she thought in her heart, Zhao Xue did a very good job on the surface.
Song Ling was quite satisfied that Shen Yao did not try to please her too much and instead maintained a suitable attitude.
The points for the refrigerator would cost nearly five figures. If her family hadn't made a small fortune recently, Song Ling would have to save up for a while if she wanted to pay it all at once.
But after buying the refrigerator, they can't buy other big items for the time being. There are only so many points, and once they are used up, they are gone.
"Mom, when the refrigerator is delivered to our house this afternoon, we will freeze the meat that Dad and the others brought back.
When I have more points later, I will find a way to add other things to my home."
Using more modern tools can improve the quality of life. Shen Yao is tired of the hardship she has to endure. Is it because the refrigerator is not fragrant or the air conditioner is not cool enough? If she has money, she will buy a washing machine.
"You should take a break. There are enough things at home. Don't spend money recklessly."
When Song Ling saw Shen Yao spoke so naturally, her heart ached immediately.
This kid really doesn't take spending money seriously. How can this be possible?
"My daughter, although mom is very happy, these points are not easy to earn, and you can't spend them indiscriminately, especially after you get married." When a family lives together, there are bound to be some bumps and bruises in daily life.
Song Ling wasn't sure about her daughter's temper, but she thought it should be okay.
"Mom, you're overthinking it," Shen Yao felt that the points could be earned back after spending them, so what was the point of saving them without spending them since they couldn't appreciate in value.
"Cheng Qi and I agreed that after we get married, we will move out and live in a house not far from home." The whole family will definitely not live together. Not to mention that she and Cheng Qi will have children in the future, the small house of the Cheng family alone will not be able to accommodate them.
Song Ling:……? !!!
Song Ling pointed at Shen Yao and trembled, "When did you two say that?"
Shen Yao shrugged her shoulders and said, "It's only been a few days since Aunt Cheng and the others agreed." This was also for the sake of the relationship between the two Cheng brothers.
"Okay, let's move out. Then we can go out together to collect things, mother and daughter," so that I won't be alone.
Song Ling's dependence on Shen Yao deepens as Shen Yao becomes more reliable.
Shen Jiancheng and Shen Yu have been away from home for many years, and Song Ling and Shen Yao have always been accompanying each other. Thinking that her daughter will get married soon, Song Ling feels reluctant to let her go, like a piece of meat that has been repeatedly roasted, and is very tormented.
Shen Yao watched her mother's expression change constantly, as if she was performing a drama. She immediately put her arm around Song Ling and tried to comfort her softly, saying that she could come back after she got married, but she would not be able to sleep at home at night.
Song Ling: …
"What nonsense are you talking about, kid? Cheng Qi is a good person. When the time comes, you can live a good life and mom will be relieved." Although the two sides did not have much time to spend together, speed is everything when it comes to marriage here.
Song Ling is satisfied with Cheng Qi as her son-in-law. Regardless of his background or temper, at least he is not someone who lives near the outskirts of the base, so his safety is guaranteed.
Soon, the mother and daughter returned home and said that a staff would come to install the refrigerator in the afternoon. Song Ling talked about Shen Yao and Cheng Qi's marriage again.
Shen Jiancheng and Shen Yu had not officially met Cheng Qi yet. Both men were very resistant, but Song Ling suppressed them. "We will meet tonight. We will talk nicely then. If you dare to cause trouble on purpose, be careful that I will not show you good face."
In terms of family status, Song Ling takes the lead and no one dares to mess with her.
Shen Yu approached Shen Yao with grievance, and whispered about Cheng Qi, "It's really bad, don't endure it just to satisfy mom, brother will help you."
Shen Yao smiled and told Shen Yu not to think too much, "Cheng Qi works in the patrol team and is the deputy captain. He is a good person with a good personality. Brother, you will know in the evening."
Shen Yu: ...
Damn it! Looking at his sister's smile, Shen Yu's heart was plunging.
It's clear that they can't keep her. Is it possible that the younger sister will get married first in their family?
"I want to marry a wife, but you are not doing your best. What can I do?"
Song Ling directed her fire at Shen Yu, thinking that other children were all very capable, but her own child was just worrying and had no efficiency or performance at all.
"Wait until your sister gets married, and put your blind date on the agenda as soon as possible."
Song Ling planned to ask the neighbors for help in introducing him, and she expected Shen Yu to figure it out on his own? That was pure dreaming.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Cheng Qi came out of the patrol team and walked to the door of Shen Yao's house.
There was a knock on the door, and Shen Yao ran out and pulled Cheng Qi in with a smile.
"My dad and the others are back," Shen Yao said, and then she tidied up the hair that fell around Cheng Qi's ears.
Cheng Qi blinked, "Is it too sudden? Should I prepare anything?"
It is not good to come empty-handed. Although Cheng Qi brought a lot of things during his first visit, Shen Jiancheng and Shen Yu were not there.
Shen Yao waved her hand, "No, my mother told me to tell you not to be nervous and just have a normal meal."
Cheng Qi: ...How could he not be nervous if he said he wasn’t nervous? He was so nervous that he was dying!
Cheng Qi was pulled into the room by Shen Yao with a stiff body. He looked up and saw Shen Yu glaring at him.
Cheng period:......
"Big Brother"
Shen Yu: ...Who is your elder brother? Take advantage of him!
"Now that you're here, find a place to sit," Shen Yu said with a snort, then he crossed his arms over his chest, turned his head away and sulked.
Shen Yao felt that the big guy Shen Yu was too childish, so she asked Cheng Qi to keep him company while she went to the storage room to get some dried fruits, washed them and brought them over.
"Yaoyao, where is Uncle Shen?" Even Aunt Song was not there, and there were only three of them in the room.
"I'm going out to buy something and will be back soon," Shen Yao explained and grabbed a handful of dried fruits and stuffed them into the hands of Shen Yu and Cheng Qi.
Dried fruits are made by drying fruits in the sun. For the taste, Shen Yao added a lot of sugar and honey. They taste sweet and sour and delicious.
Shen Yu ate one bite at a time, then got up and went to the kitchen to prepare the ingredients.
Cheng Qi didn't want to sit there idly, so he went over to help. Only Shen Yao took a leisurely rest, eating dried fruits and drinking ice-cold drinks happily.
When Song Ling and Shen Jiancheng came back with a lot of luggage, Shen Yao couldn't avoid being scolded.
But Song Ling was still very happy in her heart. Who would like their own children to work hard? Cheng Qi had a keen eye and could help her in the future.
Even greater praise went to Cheng Qi, making him feel extremely uncomfortable during the meal.
Shen Jiancheng and Shen Yu had simple ideas. After the three of them had a conversation at the dinner table, all the previous unfamiliarity disappeared.
Cheng Qi came out of Shen's house at night, staggering and almost falling several times.
Shen Yao:......
This is how much alcohol Shen Jiancheng and Shen Yu made him drink. Nothing will happen, I hope.
"No, it's okay. I'll take a rest tomorrow and go out with you and Aunt Song."
Cheng Qi pointed at the house in front and had no intention of returning to Area B.
"Okay, go back and rest first, and talk about it tomorrow," Shen Yao held Cheng Qi's arm and finally sent him to the door. She watched him go into the house before she dared to go back.
Before she had walked a few steps, Cheng Qi ran over and hugged her from behind.
With a lingering smell of alcohol on his body, Cheng Qi happily told Shen Jiancheng what he meant, like a clumsy teenager.
Shen Yao listened obediently, coaxed him a little, and then sent him back to the room.
When they got home, Song Ling was boiling water. Seeing Shen Yao coming in, she hurriedly pushed her into the bathroom and said, "Take a shower. We have to go out tomorrow."
Unless there is something special, they will not miss the daily collection.
Time flies so fast. There are less than two months left in the mild season for collecting. If we don’t hurry up, we will have to starve during the hot and rainy season.
Who wants to go hungry? Even taking nutritional supplements is better than just drinking water.
slam-la-
The hot water from the shower head poured directly on her body. Shen Yao took a simple shower and returned to her room to sleep.
The next day, the family of four had a rare light breakfast.
Cheng Qi was waiting at the door, driving a four-wheeled vehicle.
"Drive over there? Xiao Cheng, will this cause you trouble?"
Song Ling looked at the reflective car in front of her and was a little afraid to get in.
Shen Yu didn't have this concern. He had already pulled the passenger seat and kept touching the inside of the car. You know, this type of car is simply out of stock in the base.
Shen Jiancheng steadied himself, pulled Song Ling into the car, and left the seat behind Cheng Qi for Shen Yao, "Xiao Cheng, let's go to the pond today."
Cheng Qi started the car, turned the steering wheel, and rushed straight forward.
They lined up to leave the city, and thanks to Cheng Qi's position in the patrol team, they saved a lot of time and arrived at their destination earlier than others.
The Shen family brought fishing nets and sacks, and with Cheng Qi driving the car as a means of transportation, they were able to bring back more things.
"Are there fish in the pond?" The lotus flowers have not bloomed, there are only green leaves and a few flower buds.
Song Ling and Shen Yao have gone to the pond to test the lotus leaves. For such a large piece, the mutated lotus leaves are very cost-effective whether they are stir-fried, stewed in soup, or dried and stored.
"There are no fish, but there are snails and crabs. You can look for them."
Song Ling turned around and pointed to a small hill not far away and said, "There are pheasants there. You can pick up some pheasant eggs."
The five people divided the work and began to collect food around the pond.
